2010 IN Meeting

September 21-23, 2010, Philadelphia, PA

Imagining the “Dream E-Tool” for Education and Training

This year’s IN Conference focuses on the impact of scholarly content in the classroom, allowing publishers and other industry stakeholders to develop a current knowledge of the latest teaching technologies in a series of interactive sessions. Over three days, attendees at the IN 2010 Conference will interact with colleagues, think critically how their content can be highly valued by the e-learner, and return home with cutting-edge ideas and strategies that can be applied in the context of their organizations. To foster the spirit of innovation and inspiration, attendees will look at e-learning from a variety of perspectives by adopting personas including those who utilize electronic resources, those who create content, and those who are responsible for delivering information to e-learning devices.

Electronic learning tools are developing in a variety of applications for different learning environments. In small, interactive groups, conference attendees will brainstorm and collaborate with publishing innovators in addressing the following:

What does it take to transform an electronic device into a classroom?

How can scholarly publishers and content producers optimize their products in the world of electronic deliverables?

What can content creators learn from librarians, students, and faculty about the successful integration of e-learning tools?

In this new world of education, how will the roles of librarians, faculty, content producers, and even students change?

Learned Publishing Access

In recognition of this 30th year of Learned Publishing, we dedicate our first issue of 2019 to questioning everything. Our goal is to examine the future of publishing through the window of evidence, rather than tradition and status quo. We invited diverse contributions who could bring fresh, honest thinking to some of our most widely held assumptions about scholarly and professional publishing. As special-issue editor, Andrew Plume, explains in his editorial, we aim to “Bring the facts, bust the myths.”

The mission of the Society for Scholarly Publishing (SSP) is "to advance scholarly publishing and communication, and the professional development of its members through education, collaboration, and networking."
